Replaced belt tensioner within teh last year. It did not fix the squel... through a lot fo troubleshooting and some just luck.. I seen after washing the engine capartment out thet the squel went away. I initially thought that the belts must have been dirty. Well I seen what I think to be the cause. When I stoped at home I left it running because the squel had returned. I opend the hood and while I was observing I seen the tensioner go to the loose side about 1/8 to 1/4 inch and walla the squel stopped. This was an autozone part. Should I replace the tensioner again with a better quality part? The belt was also new at the replacement last time. Thanks for any help.
